Problem with mailing-list digests in latest Oort

Problem with mailing-list digests in latest Oort

I noticed this problem started with the CVS Oort about 1-2 days ago.
I'm subscribed to a mailing list that sends out digests.  When I
receive a digest, I go into the nnml group that contains hit and do a
`gnus-summary-read-document' to expand the digest into its separate
messages.  Starting the other day, when I expand the digest, this is
what my summary buffer looks like:

 . [ 178: Aimee Mann listproc    ] <* mixed> MANNLIST digest 1773
 .   [  12: Aimee Mann listproc    ] <1 text>
 .   [ 156: Aimee Mann listproc    ] <2.* digest>
 .     [  93: Aimee Mann listproc    ] <2.1 text>
 .     [  34: Aimee Mann listproc    ] <2.2 text>
 .     [  22: Aimee Mann listproc    ] <2.3 text>

Notice that the subjects are incorrect (in fact, they look like MIME
types).  The article buffers for the individual messages are also
incorrect.  It seems like something in the parsing code has broken
recently.  I'm attaching one of the digests to this message.

Any more info on the L.A. Verizon Music Festival? I'd love to go, but I 
wouldn't just go to see Aimee do a small set if there's no one else worthy of 
listening to.

Thx,
M

According to the text of the message, this looks correct.

The list server is sending MIME that makes Gnus render like this.
Look at the source code of the message (C-u g).  You'll see that the
whole thing is multipart/mixed, and each message starts with a
separator and then an empty line and then the message itself.

Before the empty line there should be a line like 

    Content-Type: message/rfc822

then Gnus would grok the contents.  But since the Content-Type header
is missing, text/plain is assumed.

That's odd, because I have some saved messages from earlier this week
that worked with older versions of Oort, but they no longer work with
the latest version of Oort out of CVS.  I can certainly ask the list
maintainer to update the digests, but has something in the digest code
changed recently (just out of curiousity)?

Not that I know of -- but see lisp/ChangeLog for the full story :-)

I'm not sure what might have broken with gnus-summary-read-document,
but I use gnus-summary-enter-digest-group (C-d) for a couple of lists
that I receive as digests and that still works for me in the latest
oort.
